茶会記 Riverside Jazz Story 第 16 回 2012-2-4 ～Bix Beiderbecke on Riveside Label and More～ 茶会記 Riverside Jazz Story 第 16 回 2012-2-4 ～Bix Beiderbecke on Riveside Label and more～ Riverside Label 裏街道 瀧口譲司 1 月はお休みをいただいて、今月 2 月から 2012 年の「茶会記リヴァーサイド物語」 の始まりとなりました。リヴァーサイド物語の主宰である古庄氏が毎回の出席が困 難になったため微力ですが瀧口が続けていき、暫時、古庄さんにお越しいただくスタ イルで本イベントを続けていきます。 事前に古庄さんにはご相談のうえ資料の貸し出しなどご協力をいただいています。 後半は瀧口色を出させていただいて、今回も近年気に入っていた作品をかけさせて いただきます。新旧取り混ぜての選曲になりますが、時々はゲストをお呼びして、特 集あるいは、レーベルの紹介などさせていただきます。 さて今回は、1920 年代中期から 1930 年代初頭のほんの短い期間の活動だけで、 その後の白人トランぺッターに絶大な影響を残した、コルネット奏者、ビックス・バイ ダーベックの残した演奏のうち、リヴァーサイド・レーベルから発売された音源を中心 に聴いていきます。 ＳＰ時代のことですから、ビックスが残した音源は様々なレーベルにまたがってお り、フィーチャー作品はたくさんありますが、リーダー作品と言えるものは多くはあり ません。 初めにリヴァーサイドに残された 3 枚のアルバムを紹介します。10 インチＬＰ2 枚 とそれらの中からピックアップした作品に未収録曲を加えた 12 インチＬＰが一枚あり ます。さらに今回は古庄さんからお借りした、ビル・グラウアーズとオリン・キープニュ ースが編纂した「“Ｘ”レーベル」からのの作品『Paul Whiteman Orchestra featuring Bix Beiderbecke』を聴いていきます。 RLP-1023 『Bix Beiderbecke / and the Wolverines』 RLP-1050 『Bix Beiderbecke / and the Wolverines Vol.2』 RLP12-1023 『Bix Beiderbecke / and the Wolverines』 (Earliest Recordings by this Jazz Imortal) 1- February 18, 1924 GENNETT Gennett Recording Company S.

  • The Recordings
    Appendix: The Recordings These are the URLs of the original locations where I found the recordings used in this book. Those without a URL came from a cassette tape, LP or CD in my personal collection, or from now-defunct YouTube or Grooveshark web pages. I had many of the other recordings in my collection already, but searched for online sources to allow the reader to hear what I heard when writing the book. Naturally, these posted “videos” will disappear over time, although most of them then re- appear six months or a year later with a new URL. If you can’t find an alternate location, send me an e-mail and let me know. In the meantime, I have provided low-level mp3 files of the tracks that are not available or that I have modified in pitch or speed in private listening vaults where they can be heard. This way, the entire book can be verified by listening to the same re- cordings and works that I heard. For locations of these private sound vaults, please e-mail me and I will send you the links. They are not to be shared or downloaded, and the selections therein are only identified by their numbers from the complete list given below. Chapter I: 0001.

  • Hoagy Carmichael's Riverboat Shuffle
    Hoagy Carmichael’s Riverboat Shuffle Selected Recordings & Copyright Issues By Albert Haim and Robert Spoo Introduction On May 6, 1924, the seven members of the ‘Wolverine Orchestra’ went to the Gennett Recording Studios in Richmond, IN and waxed four numbers: Oh Baby!, Copenhagen, Riverboat Shuffle, and Susie. Riverboat Shuffle is the first Hoagy Carmichael composition that was ever recorded and soon became a jazz standard. Lord’s discography lists nearly 400 recordings between 1924 and 2015. We provide herein information about early recordings of the song and some intriguing aspects in the chronology of its copyrights. The ‘Wolverine Orchestra’.

Made up of Dave Lambert, Jon Hendricks, and Annie Ross, they were the only interracial and mixed gender vocal jazz group in the United States in the late 1950s. In the wake of the Montgomery bus boycott victory and President Eisenhower’s consideration of the Equal Rights Act, the trio became one of the most popular vocal jazz groups of the day by singing lyricized arrangements of famous instrumental jazz recordings through a medium called vocalese. Although they seemed to reflect a utopian ideal of an integrated American society, each member of the group faced unique challenges. Referred to as the Poet Laureate of Jazz, African American lyricist and singer Jon Hendricks considers himself “a person who plays the horn without the horn,” and he is known for his gift with words.

    1N THE MIST Al maestro con carino. Una tarde calurosa en Madrid nos dedicó Octaedro a la Biblioteca «José Ingenieros», de Zarate. Hay suicidios premeditados desde los cuatro o cinco años. Eternos suicidios de humo y alcohol: También los hay mezclados con música y es allí donde aparece la leyenda, donde humo y alcohol comienzan e insuflar aire caliente al globo legendario y éste sube y sube... ¿Cómo se puede morir a los veintiocho años dejando un reguero de pólvora apagada y lenta, un sendero tan deliciosamente triste? ¿Qué academia suelta músicos que a los tres años tocan la Se­ gunda rapsodia húngara, de Liszt, de oído y ¡arnés aprenden a leer correctamente una notación musical? ¿A qué Bix se le ocurre elegir la corneta como su compañera de viaje (la corneta, con esa boquilla tan pequeña que destroza el labio 254 más yoruba) y apoyar los tres dedos sobre las tres válvulas de ma­ nera artificial, antiortodoxa? Al más Beiderbecke. Al más León Bixmarck Beiderbecke. Sólo a ese personaje insólito se le ocurre nacer un 10 de marzo de 1903 y desaparecer un 6 de agosto de 1931. Humo, alcohol y jazz envoMan a este blanco extraviado «en la niebla», sólo disipada a veces por una muchacha desconocida y súbi­ tamente bella, dos o tres amigos y esa corneta envuelta en papel de periódico, de la cual brotaban las más puras y apasionantes notas que el jazz ha proporcionado. Vio nacer su muerte en Davenport, estado de lowa, y, descendien­ te de una familia alemana inmigrada en Estados Unidos, escuchaba desde la niñez cómo penetraba por su oído derecho el romanticismo europeo y por el izquierdo la música que llegaba desde el Mississippi, con ¡os lentos barcos de espectáculos que remontaban el agua fan­ gosa.

Vol. 2: Late 1927; Broadway Bellhops, Bix and his Gang, Chicago Loopers, Frankie Trumbauer & his Orchestra. Vol. 3: 1928, Bix and his Gang, Lou Raderman & his Orchestra, Trumbauer. Vol. 4: 1928-30, Bix and his Gang, Irving Mills Hotsy Totsy Gang, Trumbauer. Compiled by Chris Ellis; annotated by Brian Rust. World Records: Restrospect Series, SH 413-416. Two series (available singly) from England that could well serve as models for reissuing classic jazz in every way but one: the sound qual­ ity is not state-of-the-art. The standards set for transfers by John R. T. Davies in England and Jack Towers hereabouts are not approximated, especially when one considers that Okeh, the source for 98% of the material, was matched only by Victor for quality recording in the '20s. Not that the level here isn't decent, especially considering that three of the Armstrong and six of the Beiderbecke sides contain nine tracks (the rest have eight--LP standard for 78 material). It is, and commen­ dable results have been obtained from the acoustic Louis masters. It's only because everything else is so close to perfection that the issue is raised, and I might not have focused on it at all but for the disap­ pointment of finding my favorite Bix item, Sorry, marred by an engineer­ ing defect.
